I am now 20 and have had pain right below my left rib cage for over a year and a half now. It’s a very sharp pain. Just recently it has felt like a bruise, when nothing visible was there. sometimes it will feel like there is a cut right below my rib, and still nothing visible. These pains will come and go, sometimes lasting days sometimes minutes. I thought of the pain as a broken rib on my left side protruding through my external oblique. I went to the doctor and had an x-ray and they found nothing at all. I can feel an abnormal bump..all most like the last false rib was turned sideways, but again the doc could not feel what i can. Just recently my fiance felt it, assuring me that I wasn’t over reacting. I feel that I have some sort of digestive problem. Although I’m not sure if it relates. I think (DON’T ACTUALLY KNOW) that there is a problem with my parastalsis after I eat. Instead of burping, it’s like I growl. The air slowly comes back up bouncing off the walls because of the waves caused by ongoing parastlsis when the food has all ready been passed through. Also, my bowl movements are not always regular. Sometimes I do feel constipated when I shouldn’t because my diet is pretty much the same. I have looked at an anatomy book and the colon is located directly in the area that hurts, But I’m not for sure if that is what it is. Please help me figure out what is wrong. I have found several others with my symptoms, but yet they too have not found any diagnosis. I feel so helpless and frustrated.

Me and my fiance had anal years ago and now I’ve gotten out of the denial that I have a small hemorrhoid. Here’s my problem. I want to continue having anal sex with my fiance as it’s the MOST pleasure able thing between us both. What ointments,creams, pills, treatments, etc. would you suggest using to avoid the pain after anal until I can get to a proper doctor (Which may not be for a while ><)
Also, would I use them before or after practicing anal sex with my partner?
My fiance has no problem with it cause HE caused it and understands. I’m more concerned with it not bleeding.

My standard short haired chihuahua has what I think is hemorrhoids. What makes me think this is the fact that when I looked him over his anus was protruding out and looked swollen. I am no expert with hemorrhoids but this was my first guess. He has been having straining bowel movements. At first he had diarrhea all the time now he has solid fecal-matter which he struggles to push out. The pieces are broken apart and seem to be connected to a stand of hair every time. I am really sorry if this is TMI but my fiance and I have zip, zero, and zilch money to take him to the vet. So if this sounds like hemorrhoids what should I do to treat it? Are there any at home remedies? If not will he die because of no treatment? Any of you who have experience with your dogs and hemorrhoids I am looking for your answers. Thanks.
I’m dead serious. Neither my fiance and I work. We have no savings. We just hit a crisis not that long ago. I am not an evil person. I love my baby Dinky and I would totally take him to the vet if I had any kind of money. But seriously though. I literally have 0 money between my fiance and I. I feel really bad for my baby but there is nothing I can do for him right now.
